A person in Honkai Impact, just became a Decade Knight

Rita Losweather, the S-rank Valkyrie of Destiny, appears to be pinned to the ground by powerful gravity, completely unable to move.

Bianca Durandal Atagina, also an S-class Valkyrie, was the most severely injured at this moment, clearly having been targeted most aggressively.

Bronya Zaychek, who possessed the core of the Herrscher of Reason, collapsed beside Yae Sakura, who clutched her chest and coughed up a pool of blood.

Theresa Apocalypse, who was supposed to be in charge of command, lay on the ground, barely alive.

At this moment, besides Kouyu, the only other person still capable of fighting on the battlefield is Azuma Yuno.

Judging from the girl's heartbroken expression, no matter how much Gu Yu tried to deny it, he couldn't draw any other conclusions.

Who else could be the murderer who severely injured these people?

"Ah, Yuno, I think you'd better step back a bit."

Gu Yu's body, which she couldn't control, uttered a sentence at this moment.

But just this tone...

"After all, you are just a pseudo-Herrscher. You pose no threat to me, and I don't want to kill you here."

"How will you know if you don't try!"

After the girl shouted those words, endless vines sprouted from the ground and bound Gu Yu's body within them.

Moreover, after the vines bound Gu Yu's body, he could even feel that the Honkai energy within his body was being drawn out by the vines.

"Interesting. You've developed new abilities for the vines again. But..."

At that moment, for some reason, Gu Yu sensed the actions this body was about to take.

But the next second...

'Thump'.

A spear pierced through Gu Yu's waist and body from the outside.

After the body actively looked downwards...

Gu Yu only then realized...

The driver on his waist, and the armor on his body...

They were all pitch black.

PS1: The number of chapters is correct, don't ask why.

PS2: I'd been meaning to write this for a while. Then other friends in the area told me there were ambulances with doctors in white coats and protective suits near my house...

It started shaking instantly.

PS3: Anyway, let's keep pushing!

Chapter 406. Something's fishy!

"Sorry, kid."

After Gu Yu's belt was pierced by the spear, the surrounding vines withered as if they were real plants.

Behind the withered vines, Gu Yu saw Theresa, wearing the fourth-generation Godslayer armor [Twilight Knight: Moonbeam], holding a spear, tears streaming down her face as she pulled the spear from her body.

"Forgive me, I didn't want this to happen."

"Ha... the serious injury was fake... oh right, I've always felt something was off..."

After the transformation ended, Gu Yu listened to the words her body spoke and immediately felt her body gradually sinking into a coldness.

"I felt like a few people were missing from the very beginning..."

"That Fu Hua, she used her full power at the last moment, didn't she..."

"And that brat, the Herrscher of Knowledge... She said she wouldn't team up with the old fogey... Ha, in the end, she still used her powers to create an illusion with the help of Feather Dust..."

After kneeling on one knee, as her body and head turned towards her hands, Gu Yu immediately saw...

Not only was a stigma engraved on his right hand, but another stigma was also engraved on his left hand.

"Hmph, if it were just a single Divine Key or Herrscher authority, how could I be so easily deceived?"

"We've been tricked. Dean, this was part of your plan, wasn't it?"

Even though Theresa's body had been pierced by the spears that had been torn apart by the Oath of Judah, Theresa saw a mocking sneer on the face of the boy in front of her.

"Why are you crying, Headmaster? You, as heroes of humanity, slew the demons that tried to destroy the world. Shouldn't this be something to celebrate?"

"Celebrate, Dean... no, this is how it should be said now..."

As if using all his strength, the boy suddenly burst into loud laughter.

"I'll let you celebrate, hahaha!"

The next moment, Gu Yu, feeling his body grow completely cold, watched as Theresa painfully embraced him.

Then, the space in front of him shattered completely.

………………

Far East Branch. Valkyrie Dormitory

Inside the dormitory, all the members gathered around Gu Yu's bed, watching her with concern as she lay there.

"Yuno, what exactly happened?"

Theresa frowned slightly as she watched the attempt to obtain information about Gu Yu's physical condition using her Herrscher powers.

"Everyone saw Gu Yu when he came to see you. He was a little tired, but not to the point of fainting instantly, right?"

"Yes. Mr. Gu Yu was quite energetic when we were talking..."

Recalling what had just happened, Yuno responded with great confusion.

"Although Mr. Gu Yu's Honkai energy fluctuations are chaotic, it shouldn't be enough to make him faint immediately."

Moreover, to put it bluntly, if Mr. Gu Yu were even slightly tired, he would have collapsed long ago.

How could he still be fighting like an iron man, charging to the front lines? By the time we caught up with him, he had already pierced through the enemy leader.

“Teacher Theresa, I have a general understanding of Senior Gu Yu’s situation.”

After taking her hand off Gu Yu, Wendy said, quite puzzled.

"Judging from the flow of bodily fluids in Senior Gu Yu's body, his organs are all functioning normally. There are no strange wounds on his body that could have caused him to fall into a coma..."

"Honestly, apart from the Honkai energy disorder, his body is quite healthy, except for being a little overworked. I can't find the reason for his coma."

Very healthy?

Looking at Gu Yu, who was sweating profusely, Theresa suddenly wondered if Wendy hadn't used her Herrscher of Reason properly.

Does this kid's current state have anything to do with his health?

Seeing the worried expressions on the faces of the girls around her, Fu Hua had already guessed Gu Yu's current state and how to solve the problem.

Based on the few remaining fragments of memory in her mind, some warriors in the Fire Moths had encountered similar situations in the past.

They don't have any major health problems, but they sometimes suddenly fall into a coma, and then break out in a cold sweat after falling into a coma.

Although most of the soldiers were able to wake up afterward, well...

Back when Fu Hua hadn't yet become a Fusion Warrior, the Eighth Herrscher of the previous era, the Herrscher of Consciousness, was the first to defeat these warriors.

According to Dr. Mei's later analysis, these warriors would have nightmares as a result of their comrades and loved ones dying in the Honkai.

The Lawbringers of Knowledge exploited this, trapping them in a beautiful illusion, and thus defeated them effortlessly.

The method to wake Gu Yu up is also very simple—Fu Hua only needs to use his feathers to enter Gu Yu's dream, see what's happening inside, and then treat the symptoms or forcibly bring him out.

But...

The prerequisite is that she has the opportunity to use Feather Crossing Dust.

Although she was very unhappy with Otto, Fu Hua still needed Otto to help her fulfill her long-cherished wish.

Therefore, Fu Hua does not want to reveal her true identity in front of others.

However, on the other hand, this young man had shown mercy to Fu Hua back then, so he could be considered to have done her a favor.

Not repaying kindness is really not in line with her usual behavior.

“But Dean, it’s not a good idea for Gu Yu to just keep sleeping like this.”

After gently wiping the cold sweat from Gu Yu's head with a towel, Mei said with great concern.

"There must be a reason why he's in so much pain. Can't we ask the medical team to think of a solution?"

"...Let's wait a bit."

"Oh well, never mind."

After hearing Mei's concerns, Fu Hua suddenly walked to Theresa's side and spoke to the girl in front of her.

"Dean, I have a way to wake Gu Yu up. But..."

"Alright, everyone go out first and give Fu Hua some space."

Seeing Fu Hua's hesitant expression, Theresa immediately addressed the group.

"Hurry up, hurry up. Those Chinese might have their own secret methods. There's no use just waiting around. Everyone get out."

"What's with all the mystery?"

Seeing Fu Hua's relieved expression, Kiana really wanted to shout, "I don't want to! I'm staying here to keep Old Gu company!"

But after seeing the smile on Theresa's face...

"I didn't say anything!"

Kiana finally decided to listen to her heart.
